Pittsburgh Penguins fans were loving the team's dominant scoring performance in the first period of Game 3. So much so, that they began letting New York Rangers goalie Igor Shesterkin about it. 

Fans started chanting "Igor" while the Pens went up 4-1 in the first period. And, of course, the Ranger heard it. 

"Chanting Igor's name may have been a mistake on their part, we'll see," Rangers' Chris Kreider said after the game. "I wouldn't poke an angry dog. My guess is that will come back to bite them in the a** very soon."

The Penguins went on to win 7-4 and take a 2-1 series lead. They'll host the Rangers in Pittsburgh for Game 4, and chances are the fans are going to be just as rowdy as they were the first night. 

So, we'll see what happens when you poke an angry dog, because they're going to keep poking it.
